Poha Packing Machine
Packing poha requires a specialized approach due to its unique flow characteristics. Being a flaky material, poha is very light in weight and does not flow easily on its own. Conventional volumetric cup filling systems often encounter issues where poha sticks during filling or does not discharge fully, resulting in inconsistent pouch weights.
For poha manufacturers, these packing challenges significantly impact profitability, making it crucial to focus on saving manpower, materials, and electricity.
Standard poha packs range from 200gms to 1kg, and it is important to have a packing machine capable of accommodating both weight ranges in a single machine.
In a poha packing machine, the ability to change weight settings easily and prevent poha from sticking anywhere in the machine is essential. Maintaining weight accuracy while ensuring simplicity of operation is also a key requirement.
Traditionally, poha packing has been done manually in many industries, where a team of 3-5 people fill, weigh, and seal the pouches. However, this approach poses limitations on productivity, compromises hygiene, and results in suboptimal packing quality.
If the net weight packed in each pouch is less than expected, distributors and dealers may raise complaints. To address this issue, manufacturers are often forced to pack higher quantities per pouch. Uncontrolled increase in weight can have a negative impact on profitability and is a significant factor contributing to the high percentage of units that experience losses in their first year of operation.
Our solution is a poha packing machine that fills pouches based on weight and automates the packaging process.
The machine features a vibratory feeder below the hopper, facilitating the movement of poha from the hopper to the weighing pan, and then into the pouch. This ensures free-flowing poha without any short fills.
The poha packing machine can handle multiple net weights within the same machine, with various setting parameters stored in the display memory. Different forming chutes or collars are used to pack pouches of different widths. The machine includes a nitrogen filling system, which is programmable as per user requirements.
The poha packing machine is available in different configurations which provide flexibility in terms of speed and budget.
This machine utilizes the same filling system as its fully automatic counterpart, while sealing is performed separately using a band sealer or electric sealer. This approach offers advantages such as simplified operation, eliminating the need for specialized operators, and cost-effectiveness. It is an ideal solution for startups or those packing up to 6000 pouches per day.
In conclusion, our poha packing machine ensures efficient packaging of flaky and light poha. With features designed to address the specific challenges of poha packing, it provides reliable filling, weight accuracy, and automation while optimizing resources and meeting the needs of manufacturers in the poha industry.
